I received the sad news Monday, Glenn had passed away.
While tears were streaming down my face, I reflected on all the conversations Glenn and I had about his love for Parsippany, working on the police force, and given the opportunity to manage the Knoll Golf Courses. He said to me on many occasions “I’ve been blessed.”
As we all know Glenn stood out “physically” very tall man. He did not have a discreet job on the force, Traffic Enforcement.
With that, you all know tickets get issued. Always remember he kept our streets safe especially for our kids, a lot schools in Parsippany, a lot traffic Monday thru Friday.
Glenn asked me after his first year managing the Knoll to tour the grounds and buildings and give a verbal report to the Mayor and council regarding the conditions and the benefit of a driving range.
Before doing so I called twenty-four golfers I knew that played at the East and West. They all said, the courses have never been in better shape.
That’s Glenn, always a job well done.
Glenn, you will always be in my heart.
